Trace Elements and Temperature Combined to Regulate Zooplankton Community Structures in Mountain Streams [PDF]
BiologyZooplankton, as an important component of mountain river ecosystems, play a crucial role in the cycling of matter and the flow of energy. However, the depth and systematic research on the formation mechanisms and influencing factors of zooplankton ...

The impact of fish predation and cyanobacteria on zooplankton size structure in 96 subtropical lakes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Zooplankton are relatively small in size in the subtropical regions. This characteristic has been attributed to intense predation pressure, high nutrient loading and cyanobacterial biomass.

Trophic state (TSISD) and mixing type significantly influence pelagic zooplankton biodiversity in temperate lakes (NW Poland) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Lake depth and the consequent mixing regime and thermal structure have profound effects on ecosystem functioning, because depth strongly affects the availability of nutrients, light, and oxygen.

Zooplankton diversity monitoring strategy for the urban coastal region using metabarcoding analysis
Scientific Reports, 2021 Marine ecosystems in urban coastal areas are exposed to many risks due to human activity. Thus, long-term and continuous monitoring of zooplankton diversity is necessary. High-throughput DNA metabarcoding has gained recognition as an efficient and highly

Comparison of techniques for counting prokaryotes in marine planktonic and biofilm samples
Scientia Marina, 2021 Though a large number of techniques are available for the study of aquatic bacteria, the aim of this study was to establish a technique for analysing free-living and biofilm prokaryotic cells through laboratory assays. In particular, we wished to analyse

DNA metabarcoding of zooplankton communities: species diversity and seasonal variation revealed by 18S rRNA and COI [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background Zooplankton is an important component of aquatic organisms and has important biological and economical significance in freshwater ecosystems. However, traditional methods that rely on morphology to classify zooplankton require expert taxonomic
